We are substantially larger and use Aruba, but I am wondering why no one has mentioned Meraki (now cisco-meraki). We tried one of their give-away aps and it seemed fine, with the 'cloud management.' I am not advocating Meraki, just curious. best, Dennis Bohn Manager of Network and Systems Adelphi University bohn@adelphi.edu 5168773327 On Fri, Jan 30, 2015 at 6:28 PM, Eric C.

+1 Xirrus, especially for the multi radio arrays. Crowded common areas benefit from sector antennas attached to individual radios. Also, there XMS server is really useful for managing a large cluster. Ubiquiti UniFi is good for smaller installations, but I wouldn't trust them for enterprise level reliability.

Dear nanog community
I was wondering if you can recommend or share your experience with APs that you can use in locations that have 300-500 users. I friend recommended me Ruckus Wireless, it would be great if you can share your experience with Ruckus or with a similar vendor. My experience with ubiquity for this type of requirement was not that good.
Thank you and have a great day
